A funny, fired-up rant about the shocking cost of existing as a grown woman. You break down the nonstop avalanche of unexpected costs, emotional taxes, "treat yourself" culture, and how being an adult is a full-time scam — with no PTO and no HR department.

Today’s topic? Fakeness. Not the fun fake — I love a good lash and filtered photo. I mean fake energy.
Fake nice. Fake support. Fake conversations that make you wanna scream into a tote bag.

I’m over it. I’m done. I’m officially retiring from the Olympics of pretending to be okay in rooms I can’t stand being in. So let’s talk.”

Welcome back to Whine with Ivory Rose, the podcast where we keep it unfiltered, real, and sometimes a little too honest — but that’s what makes us magical. I’m your host, your internet bestie, your favorite chaotic motivator, Ivory.

This is the show where we sip our coffee, wine, or water — no judgment here — and talk about the things that most people try to hide under a cute Instagram caption or a carefully edited reel. We talk about the messy middle, the uncomfortable truths, and the moments that make you wonder if you're even cut out for this thing called life.

And baby — if you're feeling like that today? You're in the right place.

Because today? We’re talking about failure.

Welcome back to Whine with Ivory Rose, the podcast where we laugh so we don’t cry, sip while we spill, and relive every awkward moment we swore we’d bury deep in the group chat vault.

I’m your host, Ivory — your favorite unlicensed therapist and professional hot mess. And today we are getting uncomfortably honest.

That’s right, today’s episode is all about those embarrassing moments that sneak up on you like a jump scare in the shower. You know the ones — the memories that randomly attack you at 3 a.m. like, "Hey, remember when you waved at someone who wasn’t waving at you?"

Yeah. Buckle up. Because I’m dragging myself for your entertainment — and listen, I talk fast, I live fast, and I collect awkward moments like other people collect Starbucks tumblers.

Welcome back to Whine with Ivory Rose, the podcast where the truth is poured strong, the boundaries are firm, and the group chats are messy. I’m your host, Ivory — professional oversharer, certified ranter, and your virtual bestie who always keeps it real, even when it’s uncomfortable.

Today’s episode is something I know too many of us feel in our souls: the slow, passive-aggressive, emoji-laden death of real friendship. We are drowning in fire emoji reactions, fake check-ins, ghosting with a “sorry I’ve been busy,” and a whole lotta surface-level social media support masquerading as connection.

Because here’s the truth: we are lonelier than ever, and yet we have more digital access to people than we’ve ever had in human history. So how did we get here? Let’s unpack it.
